I grew up in Maine, and now live in NH. The main goal of my cemetery visits is finding my ancestors and their collateral families, as well as seeking out the burial places of the soldiers from the 27th Maine Volunteers. I will also photograph all known Civil War veterans within the cemeteries I walk and, being the historian for NALF (National Association of Leavitt Families), I'm also looking for all Leavitt graves out there!

EDITSHi Steve, I presently have the Burial Book for Riverside Cemetery. I know you have taken and added many memorials and pics. Would you do me a favor and check your edits every 2-3 days. Thank you, Paul

RE: Rev. Ebenezer N. Fernald, MEI think I've got it...somehow, I misread it and put him in wrong cem. in wrong state! It was easy to correct with your info, and I think it could be correct now. Nice that you input his parents and two small children. Bio said they had "five" but I only have names of the four we have on his/her bio. When I have time....maybe I will search???Thanks, and sorry I got it wrong...I'm in a pre-Christmas'tizzy'.

Rev. Ebenezer N. Fernald, NHSteve, THANK YOU very much for finding the above burial record. Melissa IVES, Findagrave contributor, helped me, and let me know he was not in the cemetery I had placed him. I had not been able to find him since, and this is GREAT NEWS at Christmas to receive where he is I have transferred him to West Lebanon Cem. in Grafton, NH. If you know the names of the two children who are there, I'd like to know and put them on, or you can. I will try to find info on Eben's father, Dea. Joseph Fernald. Also, I'm requesting a photo of his stone. (I also changed month to show as the stone). Winnie

Charles F. Smith - Laurel Hill, Saco MEHi Steve,I returned to Laurel Hill this morning and was shown the map of the cemetery to locate lot 876 on Riverside. That 'road' is really a grassy path that has three terraces the path and another series of graves. I was unable to locate a stone with Charles' name. I saw 3 sets of stones with Smith names: closest to the main road on the right-a tall obelisk with Susan Smith on one side and I think Nellie on the other, next on the left side: Roland Smith (military), then on the right-a large stone with HILL/MURCH and several Smith/Hills in front and Murch/Hill in back.I'm not sure this is at all helpful, but if you recognize any of the names, perhaps Charles is near them. This area is at the edge of the cemetery and the upper terraces are fairly overgrown. I can try again in the spring or summer.

Enoch EmerySteve,Thanks for the photo of Enoch Emery's headstone. I have a special interest in documenting the gravesites of veterans. Thank you for taking time to locate and photograph this man's final resting place.
